Default Buying NEW rims

OK - so I don't have a ls1 - but I do have a LT1 - and the Camaro boards I have found are just terrible, but this boards seems to have a good amount of information - My question:

I'm buying rims once I get my questions answered and want to make sure I get the right ones. I found a really sweet set of rims but they are all 18x9.5 with a +45mm offset... Will this fit on my 96 camaro? Will the lip just look to weird up front? Main reason I'm looking at this set, is price - It's almost half the price to get all the same as it would be to get a staggard setup.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They will fit fine with that offset. perfect tire would be a 275/35R18.

In the back you may have to massage the hub button of the rear axle (the circel that sticks out of the rear rotor. . . . for some reason the LT1 axle hubs are a tad bit bigger in diameter that the LS1 . . . just an FYI, you may not even have to worry about it.
